I would love getting more areas for Pikmin 4! If you look at the world map, you can see a slightly sandish looking area way above where Blossming Arcadia is, so that could be for a desert like location, and additional, I would love if we got an icy location, like a snowy mountain/cabin, or maybe even some sort of dilapidated wreckage area with many heavy things to better utilize Purple Pikmin

I’d really love to see a side story with a whole new area. Sort of a Olimar’s Shipwrecked tale thing. I’d love it if it was with the President considering we haven’t seen him in ages and his absence in the game is… really weird. Maybe Louie took too long, and so he came to find both Olimar and Louie. But by the time he gets there however, unbeknownst to him, they’ve both already been rescued. He finds Moss and does silly President stuff, collecting money and things. The hocotate ship could return too!
@VantageEmblem Жыл бұрын
This is a really good premise! Sparklium for this sort of side mode could easily be retooled into pokos, and you could even have a fruit-based survival gimmick for extra measure. You could even have this longer form campaign take place at night - Imagine the president becoming a leafling! He wouldn’t care so much about the lumiknolls I suppose because they’re only a source of Pikmin to him - he wouldn’t need the glow sap hahah Or something completely different could happen with him! I just want him back in play heh

I think that would really shine a lot of light on characters that didn’t get much or enough representation in the main game they could even have remade versions of older levels to show how they’ve aged, like imagine the impact site returning but maybe more to explore or more vegetation

While I broadly agree about new Dandori Battles and Challenges likely coming with a new area, I also wouldn't discount them instead giving us a second Trial of the Sage Leaf-style cave, gauntlet, or other thing like that. It'd be relatively easy to 'discover' a new cave in the hub area and have that be the DLC location. As for mode and feature DLCs, my main wish for Pikmin 4 updates or paid DLC is not actually for difficulty modes: it's for New Game+. The very end-game unlocks are too late to be of much use for many players, especially those who saved Olimar's Shipwreck Tale for later, or who 100%ed areas as they went (both things I did). I would love to have been able to use Oatchi's final ability unlock, Louie's final reward, or the two unlocks from the Trial of the Sage Leaf at least a little before the game was over. As it is, I've pretty much only used the Oatchi and Louie unlocks in Dandori Challenges, and the Sage Leaf unlock for ONE treasure in the final area. It would totally make no story sense to have those abilities from the start, but a New Game+ mode which gives you access to all the unlocks from your previous play through would still be a fun way to experience the game. Maybe this could or should be paired with a harder difficulty mode too, or just a remix of the areas a little like Olimar's Tale did.
@VantageEmblem Жыл бұрын
This is such an amazing ask from DLC for this game - not only is it small scale and pretty doable overall, it also would transform the game. One of my biggest complaints with the game is that I can't use things I get later in earlier areas easily, since enemies don't respawn and since you need a certain amount of sparklium to unlock later areas. This would transform the game and make it even more fun and open on future playthroughs. This is easily my favorite suggestion for DLC I've seen, free or paid

I've always thought that if pikmin 4 got DLC, a cool idea would be a new campaign following Louie on the planet, in the same style as shipwreck tale. This time, enemies are the main collectible and the objective is to fill out the piklopedia/cookbook. It would have caves, feature all types except for the 3 primary colors and remixed version of the Giant's Hearth and Primordial Thicket.
@m4cp0wer Жыл бұрын
Maybe even have the juice mechanic from 3 to add some collectables along with that main objective. Maybe Pikmin could be scarcer since every creature goes to Louie's ship so pellets are the only way to increase numbers.
@cabbage426 Жыл бұрын
@@m4cp0wer I thought bringing back the juice mechanic would be a cool idea, though it would just be food this time. The problem is the only way I can think of making enemies collectibles would be to make it so that the first specimen of each species gets taken to the ship, and any consequent enemies go to the onion. But maybe you could make it so that enemies gotten in caves that always go to the ship get turned into food, like in his side quest at the end of the game.

If Cities: Skylines II's launch hadn't been such a disaster in terms of performance and community response (AND if its console release hadn't been bumped into next year too), I'd have said C:SII would be the clear favourite for the simulation category. But given how it went, I think Pikmin 4 really does have a shot, and I would say it's probably the most likely of the three Nintendo titles in that category at least.
@VantageEmblem Жыл бұрын
I 100% agree with you here - if Cities Skylines 2 had the hype, quality, and gravitas that the original game had at launch, I think there'd be a great case for it sweeping this category. The fact that it's sitting around 3 stars on steam doesn't bode well for it having fans come out to support in the voting part of this process either.

There are actually three separate settings to Pikmin Garden! There's also an afternoon one, although I don't remember how you get any of the three, maybe just refreshing it at random? About the main theme of the video, I honestly don't know. I feel like the perfect time would've been on the last Direct, but *maybe* Nintendo has something stored if they feel confident in Pikmin 4 winning an Award. Honestly, Pikmin 4 has the potential to be the best game in the series, but there's three main gripes which are so obvious and easy to fix: no enemy respawn on main areas, forced auto-aim, and the fact that unlocking swarming is extremely convoluted and you'll usually get it *after* a playthrough if you don't use a guide right from the get-go. An update to address these would be much welcome.
